barCodeScan() not working in Intel App preview after IOS9 installation

Hi,  I have recently upgraded my IPAD from IOS8.4 to IOS9.  Since the upgrade the barCodeScan() in intel.devices plugin doesn't work while using Intel App Preview.  It worked fine with previous version of IOS.  Would anyone be able to advise what causes this and what I can do to resolve it.  Thanks.

Hi Antonio.  The plugin I am using is not a 3rd party.  It is Intel XDK's own devices plugin.  I have upgraded to the latest version of XDK.  I am not really sure how to get an error log from my Ipad or from Intel App Preview.

The intel.xdk.device plugin contains many other functions other than just barcode scanning. It will include unnecessary permission requests in your app as well. I highly recommend finding a Cordova plugin to use for barcode scanning and using that instead of the intel.xdk.device.

Hi Tony, 

There is a barcode scanner sample available in the latest version of Intel XDK. It uses this Cordova plugin https://www.npmjs.com/package/phonegap-plugin-barcodescanner which is listed in featured plugins in the Plugin Manager (projects tab). You can reference the sample and make a switch.
